This catalog has a page for every lunar eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 12,064 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 0501–0520 AD

The following chart shows the position where the Moon is directly overhead at the maximum times of the total (in blue) and partial (in red) lunar eclipses (penumbral eclipses are omitted). Each eclipse will be visible approximately from the half of the Earth centred on that point. Use the zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over a marker to see the area of visibility and summary information on that eclipse.

The interactive map is currently not available.

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
20 Jan, 0501 AD
max: 10:34 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.52; Saros 61)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 36 minutes, just 52% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
16 Jul, 0501 AD
max: 09:26 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.85; Saros 66)
At maximum eclipse, 85% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 47 minutes overall.
   
14 Aug, 0501 AD
max: 16:44 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.20; Saros 104)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 20% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 56 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
9 Jan, 0502 AD
max: 10:01 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.69; Saros 71)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 3 minutes, with 69% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
6 Jul, 0502 AD
max: 01:06 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.20; Saros 76)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 5 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 20% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 24 minutes in total.
   
29 Dec, 0502 AD
max: 14:43 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.64; Saros 81)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 39 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 41 minutes in total.
   
25 Jun, 0503 AD
max: 11:08 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.07; Saros 86)
